For decades, Translation Studies has been perceived not merely as a
discipline but rather as an interdiscipline, a trans-disciplinary
field operating across a number of boundaries. This has implied and
still implies a considerable amount of interaction with other
disciplines. There is often much more awareness of and attention to
translation and Translation Studies than many translation scholars
are aware of. This volume crosses the boundaries to other
disciplines and explicitly sets up dialogic formats: every chapter
is co-authored both by a specialist from Translation Studies and a
scholar from another discipline with a special interest in
translation. Sixteen disciplinary dialogues about and around
translation are the result, sometimes with expected partners, such
as scholars from Computational Linguistics, History and Comparative
Literature, but sometimes also with less expected interlocutors,
such as scholars from Biosemiotics, Game Localization Research and
Gender Studies. The volume not only challenges the boundaries of
Translation Studies but also raises issues such as the
institutional division of disciplines, the cross-fertilization of a
given field, the trends and turns within an interdiscipline.
